Abstract (en)
A wiper device (1) for a vehicle disclosed herein is provided with a wiper motor (6), a wiper pivot (4) connected to the wiper motor (6), and a load absorption portion for absorbing a load by moving the wiper pivot (4) to an inner side of a vehicle body (16) when a load having a value equal to or more than a predetermined value acts on the wiper pivot (4). In this case, the wiper pivot (4) can rotate around the pivot axis thereof by using a drive force from the wiper motor (6), and the wiper pivot (4) extends so as to project toward an outer side of the vehicle body (16). In accordance with the structure mentioned above, when the load downward due to a collision or the like acts on the rear distal portion of the hood member (16) corresponding to the engine hood, a deformation of the rear distal portion of the hood member (16) toward the lower side is substantially made free by means of the wiper pivot (4). <IMAGE>
